6 Key Benefits of Buying a Certified Pre-Owned Honda

If you're interested in upgrading to a new Honda without going over your budget, consider buying certified pre-owned! Our dealership is sharing just six benefits of choosing a certified pre-owned Honda in this guide. more 1. Thorough Inspections To be considered a certified pre-owned, the vehicle must undergo a thorough inspection process of all of its parts. This includes exterior and interior elements along with all inner components that keep the vehicle running smoothly. Certified pre-owned inspections can determine just how much wear and tear a car has been through and what's required to get it as close to like-new condition as possible. 2. Complete Reconditioning After the vehicle completes its multi-point inspection, it goes through a complete reconditioning process. This ensures that it doesn't have any faulty elements or damaged features when it hits the lot. The end result is a car that can be trusted to operate just as well as a brand-new model, giving you more peace of mind when you make the purchase. 3. Low Upfront Cost Used vehicles are a popular choice among car buyers because of their lower upfront cost. Depending on the make and model, you can get a certified pre-owned car for hundreds to thousands cheaper than a new one. Compound this with lower sales tax and any existing dealership specials, and you scored an affordable vehicle that's in perfect condition! 4. Wide Variety of Options Any time you take the pre-owned route, you'll have endless options to choose from. Brand-new inventory is limited to the current releases, which may not have an option that meets your needs. Certified pre-owned vehicles include makes and models of all kinds, including popular Honda models like the CR-V, Ridgeline, Accord, and Civic. 5. Low Mileage To qualify as a certified pre-owned, a vehicle must have low existing mileage and be a relatively recent model. In general, most certified pre-owned vehicles have less than 50,000 miles on them. 6. Recent Models Certified pre-owned inventories are made up of many recent models, with most options being less than ten years old. This gives you access to the latest features, including high-tech Infotainment systems and advanced safety functions, without the hefty price tag of a brand-new model.

4 Reasons to Buy a Certified Pre-Owned Honda

Are you exploring the world of used cars, searching for a reliable ride? A certified pre-owned Honda might be just what you're looking for. These vehicles offer the perfect blend of Honda's renowned reliability and affordability. Let's discuss the reasons you should buy a CPO Honda. more 1. Excellent Physical and Mechanical Condition When you opt for a Certified Pre-Owned Honda, you're getting a vehicle that's practically as good as new. Only vehicles in the best condition qualify for Honda's CPO programs. Each car must be less than six years old and have fewer than 80,000 miles on the odometer. But that's just the beginning. Every Certified Pre-Owned Honda undergoes a rigorous 182-point inspection to reveal faults that don't meet Honda's factory standards. This includes everything from mechanical components to cosmetic details. The vehicles are then reconditioned, serviced, and tested to ensure they run like new. 2. Extended Warranty Protection When buying a used vehicle, quality is usually a major concern. The car may experience mechanical issues shortly after purchase, forcing you to spend more money on repairs. Honda backs up its CPO vehicles with an extended warranty. You will get a powertrain warranty of up to 7 years or 100,000 miles, covering essential components like the engine and transmission. Honda also provides a 12-month/12,000-mile limited warranty, which takes care of other important systems and parts. All these warranties are fully transferable. If you decide to sell your Certified Pre-Owned Honda down the road, the remaining coverage becomes a valuable selling point. 3. Convenience and Peace of Mind Shopping for a conventional used car can be stressful, especially when doing it privately. You have to get an independent mechanic and conduct a pre-purchase inspection to avoid buying a lemon. Investing in a Certified Pre-Owned Honda takes the worry out of the equation. There's no need to inspect the vehicle because Honda's certification process has taken care of that for you. You will get a complimentary CARFAX vehicle history report, which provides a clear picture of your car's past. You can even opt for one-owner models that have been gently used. This level of transparency simplifies the purchase process and provides peace of mind. 4. Complimentary Services Besides providing an extended warranty, Honda also offers a suite of additional benefits for Certified Pre-Owned models. One standout feature is roadside assistance, which comes in handy when you get a flat tire, run out of gas, or need to jump-start your vehicle. Other benefits include complimentary oil changes, a 90-day SiriusXM subscription, trip interruption reimbursement, and concierge services. When it comes to buying a used Honda, CPO models are the way to go. Visit Bristol Honda in Bristol, TN to explore our Certified Pre-Owned inventory. Image via
